Yes, but that again is an event that occurs within the IT developer community. For Firefox to break into consumer territory it would have to have endorsement from Google that means something to consumers - a recommendation on the Google landing page for instance. Google, on the other hand, is already a recognised consumer brand with a ready-made platform for challenging IE.
For me, the dream ticket would of course be some kind of formal Google/Mozilla alliance, leading to Firefox becoming the official Google browser. At the moment, Firefox is the best current bet for a browser that can challenge IE. A Google browser would be better bet because of brand recognition - but Gooooooogle Firefox, well for me that'd be the mutt's nuts.
